lost a baby yesterday

Ellen, I am so terribly sorry for your loss. I know how life can seem so unfair! You have waited so long for this and for this to happen must seem beyond devastating. I have lost a child as well. Words cannot describe the grief that goes with this. Cry as often as you feel the urge. Take care of *you* right now. Try to spend some time alone with your husband so you can soothe each other. You will get throught this, Ellen. I know that now it doesn't seem like it. Do you see a therapist? If not, it may be a good time to find one just to help you through this trying time.
With Love,
-El

I too Ellen am sorry you are going through such a difficult time.
I hope that you might be able to take time to surround yourself with peaceful, soothing things - quiet music, walks in the park -whatever it is for you - just taking in all the warmth your friends, the board and the world has to offer.

Dawning:
Ellen,
I admire your strength so much throughout all of this; that you are *open* to what you can learn from this tragedy.
In addition to your beloved deceased pet, please know that you can cry to the board too. I know very, very well how it feels to have little or no sense of family.
--- Quote ---There's no shortcut through pain though, at least I'm cognizant of that, even if I haven't processed it emotionally.
--- End quote ---
When you make it through and see the light at the other side, you will have some incredible strength and power.
Love to you,
Dawning.

Ellen, i just wanted to let you know how sorry I am for your loss, both your recent loss and the loss of comfort from family members who cannot or will not support you at this time.
Everyone goes thru this experience differently, but I feel a kinship with you. 19 years ago i lost twins in my fourth month of pregnancy. fortunately, i had my mom and sis to lean on, Ndad was the "oh, well" type, and hubby either didn't share my feelings or couldn't express them.
I'm so sorry for your grief, your lost hopes, and the hopeless feelings that come after losing a child. please know i'm thinking about you.
